slow minimal ambient drones | music to lose yourself in

A warm and slowly drifting minimal ambient drone focusing on just one note and its usually hidden harmonics.

The sound sources are three synths and the regularly featured ebowed guitar. Each plays the same note but all sounds were used because they have unique timbres. Each note reveals different harmonics as it plays.
The ebow has a habit of finding those harmonics.

The layers of each instrument playing the same note produces a relaxing and atmospheric ambient soundscape.

One continuous deeply ambient drone focusing on just one note and its usually hidden harmonics.

This drone starts in one place takes you on an intriguing journey.

This is a one take live performance with one note played on an ebowed guitar, a Roland SH-32 synth and a Novation KS rack synth.
All three sources can be used to explore the harmonics of the main note.

A strange but interesting spatial effect happens toward the end of the piece (get in between those speakers or put on some headphones)
as the main note and the harmonics from the three sources interact. It was a pleasing surprise to me. I hope you enjoy it too.

I started this project as an experiment to see just how minimal my music could be. Somehow these one note wonders
sound bigger and more epic than much of my other music. I think this means I may try something even more minimal. I'm not sure how or what but I like a challenge!
